What color sheers should i get?

The windows have a chocolate brown cellular shade, and the wall it is on is a mint green, with white window frames. Our furniture is chocolate brown, and the carpet is a neutral beigy-white color. I need to pick sheers to go behind the valances, which are mostly white with a small stripe of brown and green. We're using the bunny meadow theme from Kidsline. I'll try to post a picture of the valence here. Would you use white, brown, or green sheers?

I would probably do white because it will stand out against the green walls and brown shade. The valance is cute! I love Kidsline's designs...mine is from there too!

I am kinda leaning toward white too. I think the green would be too much against the green wall, and the brown too dark with a dark shade. Should the sheers come to the windowsill or to the floor, do you think? My windowsills are only about two feet off the ground to begin with.

I have been debating this same question....I love the look of long floor length sheers but with 2 cats and the baby, I am sure they will get thrashed, so I am leaning towards the window length ones.
